Kingzy Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I made a major mistake today, hopefully after reading this, you don't make this mistake also. After waiting all day during school, being super hyped to buy VCS for the PS3 after, I made a big mistake. I went onto the PlayStation Store and went to the Search Bar. I typed in "Vice" and it automatically came up with ONE game that said GTA : Vice City Stories. I click on the game and buy it immediately. It downloads about 2 hours later and I select the game. I am now SUPER hyped now that I have the game that I never got to finish the story to. A message comes up. It says something around the lines of "Plug PSP in PS3". I'm really confused at this point. It turns out that I had bought the PSP version of VCS. Which is quite stupid, as thats the only option that came up, and it barely notifies you that the game is a PSP only game. I was and still am the maddest I've been in a long time. After a couple minutes of looking and digging around the PlayStation Store, I finally found the actual game I was looking for. I hope that if I can get anything out of this, I can stop others from making this simple mistake.

Platybus Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 That surely is a bit tricky. The best way to avoid this is to look in the "PS2 Classics" section. Thanks for the advice and thumbs up. Fabrix199 and Kingzy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCKSTAR MANIC Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Im sure you could talk to a PS Store Representative to ask if you could switch the game. If its at the same price of course. *Words of the WISE* Remember to always read anything or everything that you buy online. A few things like the fine print could make along way.

Bucybumkin Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Both versions are going extremely cheaply in the Easter sale. I've just picked up VCS PS2 Classic for a measly £1.99 Platybus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
